Hotels in Nice in South of France

Hi,
I am having problems getting a reasonably priced hotel in Nice. I can book the flight okay with Easyjet but the price is going up all the time as I am trying to find the hotel. I have been surfing the net this weekend looking at hotel sites but have come up with nothing and am hoping to fly out Thurs/Frid/Saturday at the latest.

Has anyone got a good hotel site I can take a look at before I end up staying in rainy England.

I stayed at

http://www.splendid-nice.com

no complaints ( but not sure I would call it 4*) , not far from beach and train station , albeit a bit of a walk to main shops

I found them cheap on one site (sorry can't remember which one ) and then emailed them direct and got an even better deal.

Hi Payless,
Thanks for the reply. I am now booked 8)

I had a look at expedia website and then found another site called hotelclub which knocked quite a bit off the expedia hotel price, I also looked directly at the hotel which came out the dearest. It was a toss up between the Splendid hotel and The Golden Tulip Grand Aston Hotel which was the one we picked, states it is a 4 star and overlooks fountains and the massena park. Looks goods in the brochure, just hoping we get a decent view! Strangely, when we first booked the flight and went back to the site the price had gone up from 875 euros for two of us to 900 but this is still a lot cheaper than anywhere else advertised. One thing about French hotels, you have to pay for your breakfast and food separate, I hope we can find some good priced places to eat and not snail stuff. ;D

Yes - The deal I got with the hotel was without breakfast - but it was nice and not that expensive- also never charged us for Child's b/f, the price they matched was way cheaper than their advertised price.
and agin no extra charge for 3rd bed (whereas the 3rd party site implied there would be)

The Tulip was also on my list

Hope you have a great time, We enjoyed it - albeit food was a bit "french" ;D

train to Monaco was cheap and fast

Watch out for Taxi's from airport - try and agree a price
